Grace is such a pretty church, too! I lived right by it when I was in the NYU dorm. Really historic, as well.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The Church of Satan was incredibly open and welcoming for me.
OK, I've never actually been to the Church of Satan. But the cool thing about the Church of Satan is it's OK to lie....

I basically grew up here, and still have lots of ties.
Oh hey, my best friend growing up went to Grace Church School. That's all I know about it though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Kat, no neat Buddhist temples up your way?

Also, I think Episopal is too Catholic for me, liturgically.
That's too bad. I love the Episcopal church. The main thing that stops me from going is that it would mean getting out of the house before 2 PM on a Sunday, which looks like it may never happen again unless I'm staying with someone else. Man, I am lazy!
Oh, and the god issue.
So, I've just finished grading half the projects. Kill me now. Only one person got more than a C so far.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I will keep them in mind, brenda, thanks. I think my next two attempts will be this apparently liberal Lutheran church in my neighborhood, and Judson, which is so much like the church I grew up in it is laughable, although last time I checked, they also had the stuff that made me insane about the church I grew up in. But they have a new minister since I was there last, so who knows.

Another freaky uncanny valley four legged robot video: [link]
Seriously, this robot is awesome, but very freaky to watch.
Site seems a bit slow at the moment....
eta: If you can wait for it - the scene where it walks on ice and repeatedly almost falls and then recovers is absolutely amazing. It slipped so bad it fell on its knees twice, but still got back up.
eta²: OMG, the fucking thing can gallop. OK, I guess it's more of a prance....

Can I tell you how much I'm not fond of this grading system where 93 is a B and 86 is a C?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
93 is a B and 86 is a C?
???? How is that even possible?
But it's a minor fib, on the order of, say, handing a cashier an expired coupon.
But, handing a cashier an expired coupon, if they don't catch it, causes their drawer to be short, and then they get into trouble! I don't think that is very nice....

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Jessica from the Fug Girls emailed me back!!! I FEEL AWESOME! And more than a little bit silly for being so excited!!
